We had to
create a personal cultural mind map. The task description required us to
prepare a visual mind map that analyse our own cultural awareness through
looking at our culture, knowledge, experiences and behaviours.
I was
quite sceptical and scared about writing my cultural mind map because I am not
really in touch with my cultural background and a religious belief. But, I have
realised that it isn’t just about ‘where you came from’ and ‘what you believe
in. It is about much more than that. I believe that my family, my friends, my
education, my experiences, my behaviours, and my interests have shaped me into
the person I am today and my view of the world.
I
seriously believe that my family have taught me everything that I know about
the world I live in. They love me, inspire me, motivate me, respect me, support
me and accept me. They are everything to me. They have never tried to change me…
they accept me for me. I believe that I have had an extremely blessed life and
it would not have been possible without my family, I seriously owe everything
to them.
Completing
this task has made me realise that I need to be more grateful towards my
family, especially my family and friends. I have learnt that I do not need to ‘change
the world’ but I can do little things within my community to help others and
make their lives a little brighter and happier.
Until
next time! :)
